It seems almost like a jest of fate that'the United States navy should lose by accident on one war ship in time of profound peace twice as many men as were killed on our ships during the destruction of two hostile fleets. While the disaster that blotted out the lives of five brave men on the Massachusetts the other, day is sincerely to b(^ deplored it can be reckoned as merely one of those untoward incidents with which a national preparedness for war is always fraught. In fact, it is highly probable that in the-navies of the world the death rate from the disasters of peace is much higher than that of the disasters of war. The loss of the great English war vessel sunk with all on board during, naval maneuvers of the British fleet several years ago and the destruction of the English and American war ships on the occasion of the great storm at Apia probably involved a greater loss of human life than has been occasioned by all the naval battles since the

Gradually facts are coming.to light which go to prove that the German government, was responsible for the defeat of the sale of the Danish West Indies to the United States, the agents of the kaiser having been most active in influencing the members of Denmark's Landsthing. It is explained that Germany hopes soon to absorb .-the Danish power and thus gain naval stations in the West Indies, something she has long coveted but has been unable to acquire by reason of the Monroe Doctrine. It is safe to say, however, that Germany's absorption of Denmark and her acquisition of the Danish West Indies are two separate and distinct propositions. The United States will hardly countenance the back door entrance of any European power to territorial possessions in the western hemisphere. ,*

It is with peculiar and emphatic unanimity that the soldiers who return, from the Philippines declare that the only people who are worth shucks in the islands are the Chinese. These people are honest, sober, law abiding and industrious, in every one of these virtues standing in striking eontradistietion to the trifling Filipinos. The more the situation there is gone into the clearer it becomes that the problem will even-, tu^lly be solved by the unrestricted admission of the desirable Chinese. Had the American Indians ever been given half the consideration vouchsafed these miserable Tagals this country would still be a howling wilderness. Racial claims are of small importance in comparison to those of civilization. ti

Dr. Lyman Abbott evidently knew what he was" talking about when he said that it could' not reasonably be expected that newspapers should tell the absolute truth at all times, it .being impossible to always secure the uncolored facts. It is to be hoped, however, that the editor of the Terre Haute Gazette will not regard Dr. Abbott's words as an endorsement of his paint brush which is always maliciously in use. There is a vast difference between publishing colored news innocently and deliberately coloring it.

Really Senator Hanna should be excused from further denial of harboring presidential aspirations. He has so frequently and so emphatically explained his position, that a repeated expression of his views on the subject would be entirely superfluous. Senator Hanna will not be a candidate before the Republican convention in 1904 and it would seem that by this time some of his fool friends would be willing to respect his wishes.' Their persistent idiocy must be becoming embarrassing to the fine old gentleman.

"There is a gladsome note in that protest against the tolerance of spitting on the city street ears. The street car company owes it to the respectable great majority of its patrons to come down heavily on the swinish minority. The people have a right to expect this protection from the company and if it is not vouchsafed them it is to be -hoped that some recalcitrant citizen. Will serve the public by prefering charges against the corporation under the sanitation laws of the state.'

The Lumberman, the official organ of the lumber interests in the United States, publishes statistics to prove that within forty years the lumber of this country will be exhausted, if the present rate of consumption is maintained or approximated. Of course, the figures presented do not take into account the planting of new forests by state and federal commissions. but unless there is a speedy awakening to a realization of the importance of .such work it will result in little of importance within four decades. Every year but accentuates the crying need of diligent forest commissions backed bv money and power. If the Indiana legislature, which is now in session, would serve the commonwealth well it will pay marked attention to the forestry situation of the state. The reservation of state forest preserves and the planting of young forests cannot be begun too quickly. Trees cannot be built •when the stock runs short as it has begun to do in Indiana. They must grow and they grow slowly. The legislature that undertakes this forestry proposition on a broad and liberal scale will be the legislature blessed by future generations.

THE WIDE WORLD ROUND/

I In War's Wake. -n

John Bull is still ruefully counting the cost of the late war, the expenses of which k6ep cropping out in new and unpected forms. War is in its nature destructive it entails a vast increase in what economists call unproductive consumption,' and when the deceptive boom given certain industries engaged in supplying the war demand is over the drain on the other industries gradually makes itself felt. A great amount of national wealth has been wiped out of existence, afld the country which lias been deluding itself with the old popuiai' fallacy that "war is good for trade" is finally and sharply roused to the fact that nations, like individuals, are impoverished rather than eniriched by their wasteful expenditure.

Writing in the London Speaker, Mr. G. Shaw LefeVre presents figures showing a striking increase of pauperism in England during the past two years. In 1900' there was one pauper in every forty-two of population, in 1001 1 in 10, and last November 1 in 33, approximately. Last year the average number of vagrants received daily in the workhouse increased by 20 per cent., and as compared with ten years ago by 100 per cent. It is hard to resist Mr. Lefevre's conclusion that this sudden increase in pauperism is a result of the war. War taxes have been a drain on capital and hence on Avages, and now that the stimulus lent by the war to pertain lines of industry has ceased, employment lias fallen off. The waste of the war has eaten into the capital employed in the normal and productive industries of the country, and the poorest of the working classes suffer most. Unfortunately, there is still darker gide of the picture, since, besides the growth of pauperism and vagrancy, there has also been", as Mr. Lefevre shows, a marked increase in vagrancy and crime.

Politeness in Japan.

Politeness distinguishes the relations between mistresses and maids in Japan. It is so inexorable in Japan that even the ceremony of "'giving notice" is turned into an occation of compliments. There are no vulgar threats, rsulkings, or recriminations, or scoldings, or "answreing back." A servant will tell her mistress that she is dissatisfied or has had some hotter place offered her. That would be unpardonably rude., [nstead she asks for a few days' leave of absence. This is willingly granted, for Japanese servants have no settled time for taking holidays. At the end of the given time the mistress will begin to wonder what has become of the girl. She is not left to wonder long. A letter arrives cotiched in the most polite and liiumble terms, and giving any excuse hut the real one. Sometimes it will be that she lias found herself too weak for service or that illness at home detains heir. Whatever it may be, the plea is never contested, but accepted as final, and a new servant engaged. Then, after some weeks have passed, Very likely after taking a fresh olace, the old servant will turn up one day, express her thanks for past kindnesses and regrets at not returning in time, will take her regrfet"^ of wages and lior bundles and disappear forever. So the matter ends with the kindest semblance of feeling on both sides. If the mistress on her part does not wish to have the girl back she will not tell her so to her face, but will send word. Even when servants come on trial for a few days they often leave nominally to fetch their be'ongings or make arrangements for their returnnever because they have any "complaints" to make. Any discomfort is to be endured rather than the suspicion of bad manners or of anything leading up to a "scene."

Candidates for Matrimony.

The cynic who suggested that all women should marry, btut no man, only perpetrated an ingenious paradox. The theory may seem to be borne out by certain incidents reported in the daily papers. But this is only apparent. A short time ago a bachelor in one of our suburbs announced his desire to take the plunge and received hundx*eds of letters from maids and widows of varying ages. He had such a richness of choice that it was impossible for him to make a selection. About the same time a governor-elect of a certain state, having remarked after his nomination that he intended to become a benedict if successful, was inundated with proposals from candidates for his name. In fact there have been so many indications of feminine eagerness for the married state that certain sociologists have formulated the theory that there must be a corresponding unwillingness on the part of the men.

But this was a mistake. A letter alleged to have been written by a widow of Southington. Ohio, was received at Wilkesbarre recently. It set forth the fact that she and her farm were at the disposal of any good man who was willing to take her to church after buying a mairriage license. There were 500 applications for the honor. The lady protested that she was not responsible for the original notification and begged the postal authorities to help her out of the diffi-

This incident is conclusive as showing that in the matter of eagerness for the holy bonds there is little difference between the sexes. I Barkis is wiling, so is Peggoty.

THIS WAS CUSS DAY

ROLLICKING PROGRAM IN THE HIGH SCHOOL HALL. W •r*'v

THE FAMOUS '03'S FINISH

"4"

The class exercises of the graduates of January, 1003, of the Terre Haute High school were held this afternoon in the large assembly hall of the High school building. The exercises began at •2 o'clock, but long before that time friends of the graduates and High schobl alumni had begun to gather at the 15uildiiig. When the students of the school marched in from their session rooms the hall was filled.

The graduates, following the usual custom, were seated in a semi-circle on the stage. The room was appropriately decorated with class and: school colors.. Conspicuous among the decorations were the memorials left by former graduating classes.

The first number of the afternoon's program was the Salutatory," a paper by Miss Maud Lawrence. It was a wellprepared effort and received with much applause. Following this paper was a piano solo by Miss Emma Abbett and the class poem by Miss Elizabeth Smith The poem was excellent.

A recitation by Miss Lulu Pound was followed by a vocal solo by William Donnelly, president of the class. After the solo came the class prophecy, written by, an unknown propret, and read by Miss Helen Duddleston. The prophecy was good. Misses Emma Abbett and Elizabeth Smith played a beautiful piano duet, and Miss Anna Staff read the "Valedictory." The afternoon's program closed with the class song.

The Class Song.

The class song was one of the charming features of the afternoon's program" and is a great credit, to the January, 1003s. The words were written by Miss Elizabeth Smith and the music by Miss Emma Abbett. The verses follow

FIRST VERSE.

"We are the class of the century,'' The folks who know it all From A to Z, And all between that falls. Our class brings honor to your school Our names shine out In fame, ^. AVe never disobfeyed a rule, '. No teacher could us blamev .?'• X. .,

CHORUS,

'Nineteen hundred and three Nineteen hundred and thifee Oh we're the class, the only class Of January, '03. ...

SECOND VERSE.

"Our boys are very bright and wise, They number four in all To do his duty each one tries Oh, their fame will never fall. Our girls are sweet and full of wit And to you they relate How strong are they and full of grit. In starting to seal their fate.

Chorus—(Repeat.)

THIRD VERSE.

"For many weeks work we've had In order to get through. We've been as busy as the bees Anji indeed we don't feel blue. Farewell, farewell, we bid to you To learn more we shall try, We'll never say 'I feel so blue,' But get right down and try." ',

Hamill in Chicago.

Attorney S. R. HamiU, representing the Indiana operators and coal companies indicted by the Cook county special grand jury, left last night for Chicago to begin a preparation of a statement of facts in defense of the operators to be submitted to State's Attorney Deneen of Chicago Monday. If the attorneys for the two sides agree it will not be necessary for the operators to appear.

The outcome of the case to be decided upon points of law is being awaited with Interest. The operators say that if they have violated the Illinois law by pooling, the labor unions of Illinois are also subiect to grand jury indictments. They contend that i*. the operators have no right to combine to dispose of their product through a common selling agency, the miners have no right to combine to place a price upon their labor..
